Zoos Victoria is committed to its conservation, research and environmental activities but we can’t emphasise enough the importance of your involvement.

There are many things you can easily do each day to make a difference to wildlife and their habitats. Turning off the lights, recycling your milk bottles and riding your bike instead of taking your car are all vital to the future of our environment. But this is just the beginning.

As the world's population increases and our lifestyles change, we  are using more of the world's natural resources. While some can be replenished if we use them carefully, many, such as water, are finite and cannot be replaced. Already plants and animals have been lost forever as a direct result of our actions.

By understanding why wildlife is disappearing, and how we contribute to these threats, you will be surprised at the things you can do each day that will make a difference. Go on, get involved!
